A: Before I can let you know your legal rights and options I would need to know more of the facts and review any contracts or agreements you have as well as the complaint and final judgment in both court cases you mentioned. In addition, I would want to have a status of title search performed. At this point, it sounds as though you may have been taken advantage of by your friend. But, at this point, I have insufficient information to determine exactly what has happened to you and what your best remedies might be.
